A CORPORATION OF ILLINOIS.
SEAlVl FOR SEWED ARTICLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 718,960, dated January 20, 1903.
Application filed May 28, 1902. Serial No. 109,371. (No model.)
'o all whom t rmt/y concern,.-
Beit known that I, RUssEL G. WooDwARD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Waukegan, in the county of Lake, State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Scams for Sewed Articles, of which the following is a description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
My invention relates to an improvement in seams for sewed articles, and particularly to a combination of a body fabric and a rufied fabric, with an arrangement of threads for securing the ruffled fabric to the body fabric, loops of threads passing through the bases of the ruffles into the body fabric and also through the body fabric outside the edge of the ruffled fabric, the threads between the loops lying beside the ruffies and not over them, the front edges of the ruffles lying within the angle formed by the threads, whereby a finished and highly-ornamental seam is produced in which the threads between the stitches or forming the stitches between the loops do not pass over the tops of the ruffles, but the latter are left free and open, and if pressed down after sewing or the ruffles are of suitable width no threads at all will appear on the surface of the ruffled fabric, but only the outer edge or point of each zigzag stitch.
The invention consists in the matters hereinafter described and referred to in the appended claims.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in Which- Figure l is a plan view illustrating my invention, and Fig. 2 is a cross-section of Fig. l.
It will be understood that while the present invention is shown as composed of two pieces of fabric, one ruffled and one plain, with the stitches arranged as shown, various minor modifications and changes may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention, so long as the loops of one row of stitches pass through the bases of the ruffles and the loops of the other row pass beyond the edge of the ruffles, with connecting-threads lying alongside the bases of the ruiiles, whereby the tops of the ruflles are left free and open.
With this understanding of the scope of the invention attention is called tothe drawings, in which A represents a plain or body fabric, to which the ruffled fabric B is to be applied. In combination with the fabrics A and B a line of zigzag stitches A is used, which may be made by passing the fabrics through an ordinary zigzag-stitch sewing-machine or through a straight-away-stitch sewing-machine, in which the cloth-plate vibrates, one row of loops in the thread C passing down through the respective bases of the rules and securing the same in position, while the opposite or parallel row of loops passes flown through the body portion of the fabric, the thread between the rows of loops not passing over the lfop of the ruffle, but lying alongside of and adjacent its base, the ruffle lying in the apex of the angle formed in the thread and showing only a portion of the stitch, leaving the tops of the ruffles free and open.
Any means for securing the loops of thread upon the under surface of the fabric may be employed. The result is a finished and ornamental appearance, in which the ruffles are left free and open, and only a portion of the stitches adjacent the outer row of loops appears on the face of the body portion of the fabric. Preferably the raw edge of the ruffled fabric is turned under to forln a hem-fold Ct.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is*
l. The combination of a fabric provided with a series of ruffles, of stitches composed of parallel rows of loops, the loops of one row passing through the bases of the ruffles, and the loops of the other row passing beyond the edge of the ru'ftles, with connecting-threads lying alongside the bases of the rufes, whereby the tops of the ruffles are left, free and open, and the stitches substantially hidden; substantially as described.
2. A seam composed of a ruiiied and a plain fabric, with rows of loo ps passing respectively through the bases of the ruflies and through the plain fabric beyond the ruffles, and connecting-threads between the loops which lie alongside the bases of the rules, whereby the tops of the ruiiles are left free and open; substantially as described.
3. A seam composed of a body fabric and a ruffled fabric, combined with parallel rows of loops, the loops of one row passing through the bases of the ruii'ies, and the body fabric, and the loops of the other row passing through the body fabric beyond the edge of the ruffled l
